I Didn’t Even Mind that it was 10:00…

…and he wasn’t asleep when I caught him doing this in bed:

In fact, I was thrilled!  I put him in his bed, with his movie playing at 9:00 and listened to him talk for the next hour.  I had no idea what he was talking about, but he just kept on and on.  Finally, on my way to bed, I checked in on him and asked him what he was working on.  He had filled an entire little notebook with his own Star Wars story!  He continued to work for just a moment before he shared his story with me.  Though impossible to tell from these pictures because my new lens is THAT good, the only light in the room was from the little book light on his notebook.

Oh, it does my heart soooooo good to see him enjoying writing!

When he was finished he began telling me all he had written and of course I captured it!  But beware…these two videos are each several minutes long. I’m posting them for family, but if you do decide to watch, there are some really precious moments!

Uh huh, now it's very clear why they had to make so many movies! It clearly can't be contained in 2 hours :)
